The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness ~ John Muir

As our guests you will be able to roam the 34 hectares of indigenous Knysna forest. While on the trails look out for the distinctive plumage of the Knysna Lourie, the black faces of the mischievous Vervet Monkeys or, for the really lucky, catch a glimpse of the elusive Leopard.

Alternatively fill up on a delicious breakfast, enjoy the sounds of nature and relax in any one of a number of locations in and around the property.
